Chapter 66: The Continent's Most Wanted Murderer
"Look... The diary mentions the Marquise de Liszt.
Du Wei's words immediately dispelled Dardanelle's resistance to reading Goffett's diary. This loyal samurai of the Liszt family is still very concerned about any news about his mistress.
He came over and stood beside Du Wei, reading the diary left by the dead holy knight.
"January 6th. Today I met the Marquise of Liszt, an elegant and charming lady. Thanks to this noble lady, her donation shows devotion to the gods, and I hope that the gods will bless her. Today I unceremoniously lectured a fellow who tried to be disrespectful to this lady. I can't believe that there is still such a despicable magician, and I will react today's events to the Magic Union. A devout believer with status like Madame Liszt should be sheltered by the temple, and even a magician cannot wantonly bully the believers of the temple. And the disrespect for such an elegant and beautiful lady is intolerable to any knight.
Du Wei immediately judged that this should be recorded on the day that Goffit had just met the Marquise Lister and coincidentally helped her drive away the evil magician who tried to entangle the beautiful Marquise.
But apparently, Goffet did not know that the Marquise was under a magical curse. Because, he left quickly.
"January 11th. Day of Blessing. Praise the Almighty God, and praise the Goddess for giving light to the world.
Today I have received an urgent call from the temple, and I will be ordered to rush to the north, where I will join the knight brothers of the temple. This time the mission was an order signed by the Lord Cardinal of the temple. I know that there must have been another evil and violated of the honor of the temple, because it is only when dealing with these guys that we holy knights are given a mission. This mission does not seem to be easy, Lord Bishop has mobilized three eighth-level knights, and I will be one of the leaders of this operation. The gods are on top, and my faith in you has never wavered, no matter how strong the enemy is, Goffett is willing to defend the glory of the temple with his life. The Holy Knight's sword will mercilessly cut off all evil that dares to challenge the majesty of the temple!
Du Wei sighed, and he could tell from between the lines that this was a holy knight with extremely devout beliefs.
"January 14th. The day of punishment. I am willing to tear through the darkness with my blood and let the light return to the earth.
The search squad has been formed, and I will lead ten knights into the frozen forest together. I still don't know who this mission is targeting. The commander of this operation is actually Murray Trial Elder! I know very well that the Judge Master who can alarm the temple personally commanded, and summoned a full forty holy knights, including three eighth-level knights, to dispatch, this time must be a very important matter. The Judge Master was particularly serious this time, and he told me that this time any warrant issued by His Majesty the Pope himself, and that the enemy we were going to face was a guy with an evil soul, a traitor to the Temple, a former Temple's clergy who had betrayed his faith. For this reason, His Majesty the Pope was particularly angry, and His Majesty's order was: No trial, kill on the spot.
In any case, when I saw the name on His Majesty's warrant, I still couldn't believe my eyes... The gods forgive me, I dare not have even the slightest doubt about His Majesty's meaning, I believe that His Majesty the Pope is the spokesperson of the gods in the world... However, the contents of this warrant made me unable to sleep.
Hussein, the pride of the Holy Knights! One of the strongest holy knights, why should you betray your faith!
Du Wei and Dardanelle looked at each other.
"Hussein ... Who is it? Du Wei looked at Dardanelle: "I don't know much about the Holy Knights.
Dardanelle seemed to swallow hard, and his face clearly had shock written on it: "Lord Hussein... He betrayed the temple! My God, this is horrible!!
"Scary?" Du Wei was a little puzzled.
With his eyes closed, Dardanelle shook his head vigorously and took a few deep breaths before letting out a sigh that was almost moaning: "You... Harry, have you really not heard the name Hussein?
Du Wei shook his head. After coming to this world, he has been relatively withdrawn since he was a child. After falling out of favor, he spent all his energy on reading books and studying. Not very concerned about things outside.
Is this Hussein famous?
"Among the knights of the continent, the overall quality of the holy knights of the recognized Temple of Light is the highest, because their beliefs are the most devout, and they are all ascetics who have honed themselves fiercely since childhood. In the current Holy Knights of the Temple of Light, the three most powerful knights recognized as the current three knights are the elders. And Hussein is one of them. Dardanelle whispered, "If there is an exaggeration, even if someone says that Hussein is an idol in the hearts of young knights in almost the entire continent, or a target to catch up." "Why
?"
"Because in the past hundred years, he is the only knight who reached the eighth level before the age of twenty-five and achieved the title of 'Great Knight' genius! You also know that only knights above the eighth level are eligible to become great knights, and Hussein reached this realm at the age of twenty-five, and in a hundred years, he was the first! Then at the age of thirty, he became one of the three knights of the Holy Knights! He is a recognized genius, no... It should be said that a genius among geniuses! Dardanelle's voice was very serious: "The knight commander of the Holy Knights has always only let the most powerful of the Holy Knights take on the role. Among the three current knight adults, except for Hussein, who is only thirty years old, the other two knight adults are already in their early forties. Moreover, the other two knight grow-ups, one is Luke Knight Grown-up, a ninth-level knight, but when he broke through from level eight to level nine, he was already forty years old. Another Lord Kelly also reached the ninth level knight at the age of forty. Dardanelle said in a low voice: "The ninth-level knight, it is only one step away from the paladin, but for a hundred years, there has not been a paladin on the continent in this hundred years. And the three major knight chiefs of each generation of the Holy Knights are only ninth-level knights.
"So, this Hussein is also a ninth-level knight?" Du Wei asked.
"Yes." Dardanil's face was even more strange: "I said just now, he reached level eight when he was twenty-five years old, guess how old he reached level nine?"
"Thirty?" Du Wei tentatively asked, "Didn't you say that he became a knight captain when he was thirty years old?"
"Nope." Dardanelle smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Much earlier!" He had reached level nine early, but because he was too young, the temple really couldn't let such a young man command so many holy knights. So he did not advance to the rank of knight captain until he was thirty years old. And when he won the title of ninth-level knight, it was..." Speaking of this, Dardanelle took a deep breath, he lowered his voice, and even had a bit of reverence on his face:
"Twenty-six years old!"
Du Wei raised his eyebrows: "That is to say, after he obtained the title of level eight, he broke through the first level within a year?"
"It's more than that." Dardanelle's answer surprised Du Wei: "There are even rumors that Hussein's strength has broken through the ninth level, but it is only a little short of the tenth-level paladin. Now that there are no paladins on the continent, the ninth-level knight is already the strongest knight at present, and Hussein is recognized as the most powerful ninth-level knight! Some even think that he is now the first knight of the entire continent! Even the Holy Knights admitted that Hussein's strength had surpassed that of the other two knights. Moreover, he was only twenty-six years old when he did this! Twenty-six years old!!
Du Wei couldn't help but be moved.
Twenty-six-year-old First Knight of the Continent?!
"Over the years, although Hussein has not really broken through the paladin, everyone believes that he will definitely become a paladin, andIt is also the first paladin to appear on the continent in a hundred years! Inside the temple, everyone considered him the pride of the Holy Knights, because the Paladins had been extinct on the continent for a hundred years, and it would be very beneficial to the reputation and prestige of the Holy Knights to have a Holy Knight reach the level of the Paladins. That's why the temple appointed Hussein, who had just turned thirty, to the position of knight chief. Before that, those who could become the knights of the Holy Knights at the age of thirty in history were all figures who later became paladins!
Both of them guessed that the Holy Knight was dispatched, and something big must have happened. But I definitely didn't expect things to be so shocking!
The figure recognized as the first knight of the continent and one of the three knight chiefs of the Holy Knights actually betrayed the temple and was ordered by the temple to send the holy knight to hunt him down!
This matter seems to be done very secretly, and the news has not been circulated, otherwise, it will definitely be the biggest news that has caused a sensation in the entire continent!
Du Wei and Dardanelle looked at each other for a long time, and both saw shock in each other's eyes, of course, more puzzled.
Hussein, a genius who was praised by all. A genius who ascended to the position of the three knight captains of the Holy Knights at the age of thirty! He is respected by the temple and admired by the world, he also has a peerless genius, a recognized future paladin... It can be said that he has a brocade future!
How could such a person suddenly betray the temple? Become a traitor to the temple and kill quickly?
